This chapter reports the conclusions of an expert consensus conference on the basic principles and nomenclature of renal replacement therapy, currently used to manage acute kidney injury. Common definitions, transport mechanisms, and modalities used to deliver continuous extracorporeal therapies are discussed. A description of performance characteristics of membranes, filters, transmembrane transport of solutes and fluid, flows, and methods of measurement of delivered treatment are provided, focusing on continuous renal replacement therapies, which are used in the management of critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. Devices and operations are classified and defined in detail to provide guidelines for use of terminology in papers and research.

Abstract
This chapter reports the conclusions of an expert consensus conference on the basic principles and nomenclature of renal replacement therapy, currently used to manage acute kidney injury. Common definitions, transport mechanisms, and modalities used to deliver continuous extracorporeal therapies are discussed. A description of performance characteristics of membranes, filters, transmembrane transport of solutes and fluid, flows, and methods of measurement of delivered treatment are provided, focusing on continuous renal replacement therapies, which are used in the management of critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. Devices and operations are classified and defined in detail to provide guidelines for use of terminology in papers and research.
